Search - Sense Field :: End a Letter

Where'd this come from? you say Japan?

"I wonder why End a Letter was only released in Japan? or imported from Japan. The band broke up shortly after Living Outside.



I was glad to find End a Letter even though it contained many songs from Sense Field's self-titled album with Buddha on the cover (which I already own). But the songs such as Sage and First Things first take a less-acoustic approach. And Greater Than takes a more acoustic approach.



Many of the songs are unreleased studio tracks. And many of them remind us of Sense Field's early music from their albums Building, Killed For Less, and Sense Field. It's really a solid set of songs overall.



If you are able to get it for around 20 dollars (as I did) then it is well worth the purchase price. And hopefully the band or their label will do a Greatest Hits set (fans can only dream).

What You Have Missed

"It's beyond me, why this album is only released in japan. it's not just the re-release of some older stuff. a lot of the songs you find here, are from the (never released) album "under the radar", which was supposed to be released between the "building" and the "tonight is forever" record. in addition, you get all those sampler contributions sense field did over the years and songs from hard-to-find releases. i don't know, why the track "in election" is missing, because it's a pretty strong one. but there might be a reason for that. anyway, this is a strong buy for anyone who likes guitar-driven pop music. it's definitely worth the high price. sense field fans should own it already."

The Best Is The Oldest Is The Last

"Sense Field's final CD, the import "End A Letter", is primarily made up of their older works (off the self-titled 'Buddha' album), as well as other lesser-released albums (see Caribou, Beautiful Beautiful). This is an incredible CD, however, it is sad to see a band like Sense Field end their run without ever getting the publicity they rightly deserved."
